Why does my tv turn on

I have a Samsung UN65JU7100FXZA

Version No. IH02

The tv worked fine the night before. Then this morning I go to turn it on and no picture. It just made a sound like pufff. Is it shot or worth fixing? Thanks.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Check the capacitors for continuity with a multimeter.

@oldturkey03 I ordered in a whole set of caps for my TV since I could never get Samsung to tell me which ones were the bad ones. The class action law suit never disclosed this information either. Tech support acted like they had never heard of the problem even thought 6 million people were entered the law suit. Really amazing. Will be putting them in this week and and try to find out which were the defective ones and will report back.

Robert Bretz that could be coming from anywhere. Besides the excellent answer given by my colleague @mayer I suggest you start taking a look at it. Unplug it and remove the back of your set. Take a good look (but don't touch) at all the boards. Check for obviously damaged parts like leaking or domed looking capacitors, bad fuses etc,. Post some good pictures of all of your boards with your question. Use this guide for that. It will allow us to see what you see. Pay particular attention to the Power board, T-Con board (there are separate fuses) as well as your main board.
